    I'm done with them. I used to order from them in the past, but I've found others I like better. Just hope those others don't go full woke!
    CindyE, would you be willing to list a couple? I used to buy some Indian spice mixes from them, like Rogan Josh. but I can see I'm going to need a new source

    Look through their offerings, they likely have a similar combination.

    My House Wren's spice cabinet is full of their stuff. I find it hard to believe that any company would do anything this ridiculous, but nowadays who can tell? I have sent an email to Penzeys asking them to either confirm or deny that they are behind this. I will report back.
    Their social media has a lot of this sort of thing, so it’s quite likely to be exactly what it appears to be.

    I went there once, but only because my brother lived close and I stopped when I was in the area. Good selection, but wasn’t a huge need to rush back.

    Penzeys has sunny Paris that I love, it was a blend the father created the son copied, Spice House has Parisian shallot herb blend the original blend. Chicago steakhouse smoke seasoning is another good mix.

    Funny story is I learned of Penzey’s rantings several years ago purely by accident, I came across info on his fathers and now sisters business and read her statements that she sells spices not politics and I could get my favorite blends. I called in my first order and told them why I was a new customer, the person taking the order said they were get lots of similar calls. I usually get labels with my spices for my jars and just order the spices in bags. They gave me, at no charge, new lables for all my jars, even things not ordered so I didn’t have to look at penzey labels any longer. LOL

    Wifey liked Penzeys and I used them for all my BBQ rubs. Stopped a couple of years ago when they started this crap. They just had a "Remember Jan 6" special talking about a day that would live in infamy, you know, just like Pearl Harbor.

    A) Never understood the "we only need 1/2 the available market" approach, either.
    B) At least they are still Capitalists! Lots of dirty American dollars flowing thru their stores.

    Just made an order last night, and was not asked about affiliations other than 'Visa' or 'Mastercard'.

    Anybody ever verify if they meant to send it or where hacked/blamed the intern/whatever?
    Well, it is featured prominently and proudly on the facebook page.
